What the source says

In 2026, apparent steel consumption is projected to finally recover (+3%, marginally revised from +3.1%), conditional on a positive evolution of the industrial outlook and an easing of global tensions, both of which remain unpredictable at this stage.

Verbatim extraction verified: The figure 3.1% is directly attested in the quoted passage (Economic and steel market outlook 2025-2026, fourth quarter).

The figure above was extracted from this passage. If it does not match, the extraction is wrong and we want to know.
